Nearly 60 apply for two City Council seats

March 12, 2010

Nearly 60 people applied for two vacant Chicago aldermen jobs, according to a list City Hall released this afternoon.

The list, however, only identifies the candidates by their names, and was released after 4 p.m., making it tough to quickly verify many of the candidates. You can check out the applicant list by clicking HERE.

The 1st Ward spot has been open since January, when former Ald. Manny Flores went to work for Gov. Pat Quinn. Daley must appoint Flores' replacement by Tuesday. Then the City Council gets to vote on the candidate.
